    Every few minutes or so mutter quietly to yourself in a confrontational tone, no one will ever bother you except those SOBs in the white coats.

    I know... Wear a ghillie suit and no one will see you. No... that won't work... some drunk may mistake you for a tree and try to "go" on you. Best, just to be honest and say "I'd rather be alone" if that is what you prefer.

    Start dancing and the conversation will end quickly, plus you will put a few smiles on the faces of your adoring fans.

    I tend to attract the rough crowd or people who feel they should share they life's problems. Give me the rough crowd any day !!!! I'll talk to them. You can get into some really interesting conversation with them that you are probably better off not knowing.

    I so dread whiners. I am trying to forget my problems at the end of the day... I don't want to hear yours !!!! I can't believe how open people are with strangers with their problems. This country has turned into a bunch of whiners.

    Another way... ask "would you like to sit down?" "Here take my seat"... then you can go sit somewhere else... They'll get the message. But you'll so miss the whining.
